Italian Recipes are my favorite for dinner!

I always thinking about what I am going to prepare for lunch or dinner. The Italian Recipes are my favorite recipes for some lunch or dinner.  I love to eat pasta in any kind and prefer to eat with white cream sauce instead tomatoes sauce.  I try to look up for some new recipes from the Internet and I found this recipe Pappardelle With Snap Peas.  It seems to be very easy to prepare and cook. I will have ready this meal in thirty minutes. Fifteen minutes to prepare and fifteen minutes to cook.



Ingredients
Directions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallions, snap peas, jalapeno and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until soft, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a serving bowl and toss with the parsley and chives; reserve the skillet. Meanwhile, cook the pappardelle in the boiling water until al dente, about 6 minutes. Reserve 2/3 cup of the cooking water, then drain the pasta and toss with the vegetables.
Pour the reserved cooking water into the skillet and add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Bring to a boil, whisking until the butter melts, then cook until reduced slightly, about 2 minutes. Pour the sauce over the pasta, sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese and toss. Top with the remaining 1/4 cup cheese.

I have never tried before the Pappardelle pasta and I tried this recipe last week for dinner and it was delightful.  This recipe is only 409 calories. I did not put jalapeno pepper.  The parsley, chives and cheese tasted really good with the pasta!
